I&C Competency Stds - TESDA
Technical Education and Skills Development Act of 1994
(Republic Act No. 7796)
Section 22, “Establishment and Administration of the National Trade Skills Standards” of the RA 7796 known as the TESDA Act mandates TESDA to establish national occupational skills standards. The Authority shall develop and implement a certification and accreditation program in which private industry group and trade associations are accredited to conduct approved trade tests, and the local government units to promote such trade testing activities in their respective areas in accordance with the guidelines to be set by the Authority.
The Training Regulations (TR) serve as basis for the:
1. Competency assessment and certification;
2. Registration and delivery of training programs; and
3. Development of curriculum and assessment instruments.
Each TR has four sections:
Section 1 Definition of Qualification – describes the qualification and defines the competencies that comprise the qualification.
Section 2 The Competency Standards format was revised to include the Required Knowledge and Required Skills per element. These fields explicitly state the required knowledge and skills for competent performance of a unit of competency in an informed and effective manner. These also emphasize the application of knowledge and skills to situations where understanding is converted into a workplace outcome.
Section 3 Training Arrangements - contain information and requirements which serve as bases for training providers in designing and delivering competency-based curriculum for the qualification. The revisions to section 3 entail identifying the Learning Activities leading to achievement of the identified Learning Outcome per unit of competency.
Section 4 Assessment and Certification Arrangements - describe the policies governing assessment and certification procedures for the qualification.

SECTOR SPECIFIC
1) Cleanroom or clean room is an environment, typically used in manufacturing or scientific research, with a low level of environmental pollutants such as dust, airborne microbes, aerosol particles, and chemical vapors. More accurately, a cleanroom has a controlled level of contamination that is specified by the number of particles per cubic meter at a specified particle size.
2) Electronic manufacturing services (EMS) is a term used for companies that design, test, manufacture, distribute, and provide return/repair services for electronic components and assemblies for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). The concept is also referred to as electronic contract manufacturing (ECM).
3) Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a swift discharge of electric current between two objects with different charges and different numbers of electrons. This exchange of electrons creates a large electromagnetic field buildup, resulting in ESD. Certain electronic devices are vulnerable to low-voltage ESD. For example, a hard drive is susceptible to just 10 volts. Integrated circuits (IC) are also prone to ESD and may be permanently damaged by high-voltage currents.
4) Front-end-of-line (FEOL) is the first portion of IC fabrication where the individual devices (transistors, capacitors, resistors, etc.) are patterned in the semiconductor. FEOL generally covers everything up to (but not including) the depositions of metal interconnect layers.
5) Hard disk drive (HDD) is a data storage device used for storing and retrieving digital information using rapidly rotating disks (platters) coated with magnetic material. An HDD retains its data even when powered off. Data is read in a random-access manner, meaning individual blocks of data can be stored or retrieved in any order rather than sequentially. An HDD consists of one or more rigid ("hard") rapidly rotating disks (platters) with magnetic heads arranged on a moving actuator arm to read and write data to the surfaces.
6) A head-gimbal assembly of a hard disk drive includes a load beam connected to a pivot arm, a slider on which a magnetic head is mounted, an elastic support member having one end coupled to the load beam and the other free end portion at which the slider is supported, and a damper provided between the load beam and the slider to attenuate vibration transferred between the load beam and the slider.
7) IPC, the Association Connecting Electronics Industries, is a trade association whose aim is to standardize the assembly and production requirements of electronic equipment and assemblies. IPC is accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) as a standards developing organization and is known globally for its standards. It publishes the most widely used acceptability standards in the electronics industry.
8) In manufacturing, lot traceability is readily-available access to the complete history of all manufactured lots, batches and serialized units, spanning production in multiple plants.
9) MSDS (an acronym for Material Safety Data Sheet) - is an important component of product stewardship and occupational safety and health. It is intended to provide workers and emergency personnel with procedures for handling or working with that substance in a safe manner, and includes information such as physical data (melting point, point, flash, etc.), toxicity, health effects, first aid, reactivity, storage, disposal, protective equipment, and spill-handling procedures. It is a written document that outlines information and procedures for handling and working with chemicals.
10) Out-of-control action plan (OCAP) - is a flowchart that guides employees' reactions to out-of-control situations. It consists of activators (which define out-of-control conditions); checkpoints (which are likely causes for the conditions); and terminators (which contain the action that should resolve the conditions). OCAPs are dynamic. For example, Pareto analyses of OCAPs can identify commonly used terminators and suggests methods to eliminate frequent causes of problems or to modify the OCAPs that react to common out-of-control situations. Benefits of OCAPs include the empowerment given to the operators to troubleshoot problems. Other benefits are increased process efficiency and standardization of problem solving techniques.
11) Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) - specialized clothing or equipment worn by employees for protection against health and safety hazards. Personal protective equipment is designed to protect many parts of the body, i.e., eyes, head, face, hands, feet, and ears.
12) Production line - is a set of sequential operations established in a manufacturing establishment whereby materials are put through a process to produce an end-product. The machines and peripheral equipment are in the order they are used. The process is not stopped and restarted for each new product as the line is dedicated to producing a single or small group of products.
13) Quality management system (QMS) - is a collection of business processes focused on achieving your quality policy and quality objectives — i.e. what your customer wants and needs. It is expressed as the organizational structure, policies, procedures, processes and resources needed to implement quality management.
14) Statistical process control (SPC) - is a method of quality control which uses statistical methods. SPC is applied in order to monitor and control a process. Monitoring and controlling the process ensures that it operates at its full potential.
